Had to pass this on. I had the pleasure of being backstage for the fabulous Mahotella Queens at this year's New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Fest (yes, you guessed it, courtesy of one Michael Paz...merci, MP) and they're not to be missed. And the world knows that Arrested Development rocks steady. Maybe see you there. Film sound very interesting, no?
